This is so funny. The other night when we bought the DANG THING I asked the salesperson if it is illegal to kill pigeons in California (please, PETA people, I'm sorry but I've tried everything, I truly have).
Afterwards, my husband said "I told you not to mention the reason for buying it to anyone! Do you think everyone wears a white collar?" LOL, guilty me. Already sentencing myself for a crime I haven't yet committed. AND HERE I AM CONFESSING ON A BOARD (my husband is right, I'm looking for world forgiveness).
I have killed a snake with a b.b. gun, and it was no easy task.
I only did it for my mother (oh yeah, it always comes back to her) because she has a horrid fear of snakes and this one was on her garage door - and it was back in another part of the country where kids get their first b.b. gun on their first birthday (do not say anything that could lead others to feel put-down, but I am not identifying what area of what country).
It took at least 50 - 100 b.b.'s (b.b.s?) because it (a) was dark (b) snakes are skinny (c) I'm not a good shot.
So, if it's a "snake in the grass" that 'yer needin' helpin' with, sorry, that "ain't" me - but if yer' lookin' to down a garage door snake, give me a jingle.
